HENNA BELLIES   

I am now offering mehndi on ladies preggie bellies! Mehndi, or the application of henna, is a long ancient tradition in India, Middle Eastern, and North African countries. Henna is safe and natural. Henna is applied on the skin with a cone and left to dry. It will leave a deep orange to brownish red stain for about 2 to 3 weeks depending on the care. I never use "black Henna"! Black henna contains hair dyes and other toxic chemicals. I only use natural henna from India or Pakistan, mixed with only sugar, lemon juice and lavender essential oil. Safe for mommies to be! 

Bellies are free for my clients! If you are interested in more henna, or have a friend who is interested, please visit my henna website : www.freewebs.com/hennabyrebekah/  email at rebekah.wilcken@yahoo.com 

Henna, once applied must be dry to the touch then sealed and left on the skin for 6-8 hours. You can scrap it off after that, and keep it dry for 12 hours for best results. Stain will be bright orange, and darken during the 12 hour period.
